Artest has interesting plans after fine rescinded

Los Angeles Lakers forward Ron Artest had some interesting comments after learning the NBA had rescinded his $4,000 after he received a technical foul at the end of the Lakers’ loss to the Los Angeles Clippers Sunday afternoon.

Artest told the Los Angeles Times he was hungry — make that famished — to get back the $4,000 he would have forfeited had his ejection against the Clippers had not been overturned.

“I could’ve bought 10,000 In-N-Out Burgers,” Artest said. “I rather would’ve done that than give it away. I’m going to get 10 burgers [after Monday’s game]. I love In-N-Out. It’s addicting. It’s the only reason I’m here in L.A. If it wasn’t for In-N-Out Burger, I probably would’ve gone to Memphis or something.”

After that, Artest transitioned his diatribe into his description of men’s underwear, saying that one unidentified NBA referee “definitely has Fruit of the Looms that are super tight.”

“He should do a commercial with extra-medium Fruit of the Looms, the tight ones,” Artest said. “He should do a little kid commercial of a man wearing little kid underwear.”

Whatever.

But Artest does make the NBA more interesting, doesn’t he, Spurs Nation?
